We’re looking forward to joining fellow horticulture professionals at the upcoming HTA East Midlands OHAS & Regional Event at Flamingo Flowers, with Jamie and Florence representing MorePeople at the event.
Taking place on Wednesday 14 October 2026 in Spalding, the event brings together HTA members for an opportunity to connect, share experiences and explore some of the key issues currently affecting the horticultural industry.
Hosted at Flamingo Flowers, the event offers attendees the opportunity to hear from industry experts while getting a closer look at one of the region’s leading horticultural businesses.
The programme includes updates from the HTA on input benchmarking, the Ornamental Horticulture Assurance Scheme (OHAS) and policy, alongside a session from PlanetMark exploring how businesses can simplify carbon measurement and respond to supermarket expectations.
The day will also include an introduction to Flamingo Flowers and a tour of their impressive packhouse facility, providing a valuable insight into the operation behind one of the UK’s major flower and plant suppliers.
At MorePeople, we work closely with businesses across horticulture, fresh produce and agriculture, helping them attract the people and expertise they need to grow.
Regional events like this are a great way for us to stay connected to the businesses and professionals shaping the industry, while gaining a deeper understanding of the operational, technical and commercial challenges they are facing.
If you’re attending the HTA East Midlands Regional Event, be sure to say hello to Jamie or Florence. Whether you want to talk recruitment, talent planning, or simply catch up with others working across horticulture, they’d love to meet you.
We’re looking forward to spending the day with the East Midlands horticultural community, learning from industry experts and seeing first-hand the impressive operation at Flamingo Flowers.
